    Extractions: 11th grade student Can you please tell me names of at least five female math teachers who changed history back then? Hi Kisha, There is a great history of mathematics web site at the University of St Andrews, Scotland, called the The MacTutor History of Mathematics archive . One of their pages, http://turnbull.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/history/Indexes/Women.html has a list of women mathematicians. Any of these and many more would satisfy your criterion. From the Mac Tutor list there a few that I would suggest that you read about. Their lives are facinating. Hypatia of Alexandria

    Extractions: Women in Math (WIM) is an organization at the University of Maryland College Park (UMCP). WIM is dedicated to serving the needs of women mathematicians at UMCP. In order to fulfill that purpose, WIM members have organized a number of events. Two ongoing activities are monthly lunch get-togethers and biweekly graduate women talks . We also have an electronic newsletter for our members. This WWW page is WIM's latest endeavor. It is our goal that this page will include information or links to information in the following categories: Scholarships, Conferences, etc. Women in Mathematics Women in Computer Science, Physics, or Engineering Advice for Graduate Students in Math or Other Scientific Disciplines ... Pictures are now available from the 2nd Annual WIM picnic held in June! It was a great chance for students, faculty and staff from our department to talk over sub sandwiches and watermelon.

    Extractions: This book could be a good starting place for those interested in reading about women mathematicians, but Perl places too much emphasis on these women as wives as mothers. For instance, the greater part of Grace Chisholm Youngs biography was dedicated to her role as mother and wife. Only a short amount of Youngs biography was dedicated to her math research and publications. I found this very disturbing,and, honestly quite an insult to these outstanding and courageous women. I also think it sends the wrong message to those women aspiring to be career mathematicians, that no matter how much you accomplish as a mathematician, you will always be thought of first as a wife and mother.

    Extractions: Women in Mathematics The Mathematics and Statistics Department at Acadia has witnessed high numbers of female majors since the early 1990's, and expects this trend to continue in the future. The department's small size, friendly atmosphere, and experienced faculty have proved to be a successful combination in changing what was once a largely male discipline. In 1996, in fact, five of Acadia's six honours mathematics graduates were female, and their story was featured in an issue of In House , Acadia's official campus newsletter.

    Extractions: Very little is known about many early women mathematicians. Many women experienced extreme prejudices because of their sex, therefore limiting their success and acknowledgements in many fields such as mathematics. It is very rare for much to be known with certainty about beginning female mathematicians and almost impossible to find any original work. Maria Agnesi is a pioneering female mathematician that has a history with many aspects that can be labeled as accurate, and her book Analytical Institutions is the first surviving mathematical work written by a woman (Gray and Malakyan, 258-259). Maria Gaetana Agnesi was born on May 16, 1718 in Milan, Italy. Maria was born into a rather wealthy family and was fortunate enough to receive an extensive education. Maria's father, Pietro Agnesi, was a strong advocate for the education of his daughter (Anges Scott 1; Smith 109). Whether or not he was a wealthy silk merchant or a professor at the University of Bologna are issues that are still debated. C.Truesdell states in an article that Anzoletti "effectively disposes of the tenacious old legend" that Agnesi’s father was a professor of mathematics (p 115), whereas Gray and Malakyan state that her father "occupied the chair of mathematics at the University of Bologna" (p 256). It was very rare for a woman to receive an education during the eighteenth century, much less one as extensive as Maria's was. Maria's father provided her with highly respected tutors such as Don Ramiro Rapinelli, which happened to be a professor of mathematics at the University of Pavia. Maria demonstrated extreme intelligence at an early age (Alic 196), and became well versed in languages, philosophy, and mathematics

    Extractions: Last December, the ICTP hosted the 8th General Meeting of European Women in Mathematics. The gathering attracted more than 100 women from 30 different countries worldwide. Emilia Mezzetti, who served as the chief organizer, examines the plight of women within the profession today. Women Mathematicians Count on Brighter Future F eminine mathematics? The term sounds preposterous. As every school child knows two plus two is four. From the simplest calculations to the most complex equations, the unbending rules of mathematics conform to laws of nature that reach well beyond differences in gender. Gender nonetheless has played an important role in mathematics when it comes to some critical factorsmost notably, hiring and promotions. And that's why women have begun to join together in organizations like European Women in Mathematics (EWM). Their goal is to recalibrate the profession's disturbing demographics so that university mathematics departments become as gender-free as the research findings of their faculty members. These numbers may surprise you. In Denmark, just 2 percent of all mathematicians teaching in universities are women; in Germany, it's 3 percent; in the United Kingdom, 7 percent. Among Mediterranean countries, the situation is better but by no means satisfactory. In Greece, nearly a quarter of all math professors are women; in Italy, it's 35 percent. Across Europe, when it comes to math professors, only Portugal has a 50-50 gender split. And this dismal picture becomes even worse when calculating the number of women serving as department heads or deans.

    Extractions: This site, created under the direction of mathematics professor Larry Riddle, is part of "an on-going project by students in mathematics classes at Agnes Scott College ... to illustrate the numerous achievements of women in the field of mathematics." There are currently over 130 biographical essays available, from Maria Gaetana Agnesi to Lai-Sang Young, many of which contain photos and references for both print and electronic sources. The essays are accessible by browsing either the alphabetical or chronological index. Two other sections of interest list the first Ph.D.'s in mathematics obtained by women before 1930 and a list of prizes, awards, and honors granted to women mathematicians. [AG]
